Zoofari Stroll Sponsorship Opportunities

More Than a Stroll

The Zoofari Stroll is more than an event—it is about families supporting families, building community, creating connections and making sure individuals impacted by autism feel seen, supported and celebrated.

Over the years, this event has gone by different names, but the mission has always remained the same: creating an inclusive, safe and joyful space where families can relax, connect with resources and enjoy meaningful time together.

Guests can enjoy a day at one of the top zoos in the country with family-friendly experiences, community engagement and sensory-aware opportunities designed to make the day enjoyable and less stressful for all ages.
